-Nr. J. l.. Ludlow's residence in Yves
Winston is nearing completion. Mr.. l.
may content himself in knowing tina
it would be difficult to surpass the design O
the building. The painting was done By
Messrs. Chick L Petree and evinces boil
taste and skill. Their work ON the interio
we think cannot be surpassed, either in de
ign or finish. This is another addition t
the many handsome residences in this por
tion of our city.

educator, and the enviabIs reputation has
been fairly earned, for there is not state i
the South that has failed to pay its tribut
by sending its daughters to him, and bu
